ABSTRACT
Objective:
To study the predictive value of carotid plaque score for evaluating the severity of coronary artery lesions.Methods:
A total of 152 patients with coronary angiography diagnosed coronary artery disease (CAD) in our hospital from 2016-01 to 2016-05 were selected.According to coronary branch involvement,the patients were divided into 3 groupsSingle branch lesion group,n=72,Double branch lesion group,n=38 and Multi branch lesion group,n=42.The basic conditions as plaque detection rate,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),body mass index (BMI) were collected and carotid ultrasound examination was conducted in all patients.Carotid plaque condition and coronary lesion degree were calculated by semi-quantitative score and Gensini score methods;the relationship between semi-quantitative score and Gensini score was compared.Results:
Total cholesterol (TC),HDL-C,LDL-C and BMI were similar among different groups,P>0.05.Compared with Single branch lesion group,Double branch lesion group and Multi branch lesion group had more smokers and the higher plaque detection rate,P<0.05.Semi-quantitative score and Gensini score were elevating as coronary lesion branch increasing accordingly.Conclusion:
The severity of coronary lesions could be evaluated and predicted by semi-quantitative calculation of carotid integral.
